Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester City all have brilliant front three combinations that can cause havoc for any defence in the Premier League. Nicolas Pepe, who joined the Gunners from Lille in a club-record deal over the summer, started alongside Alexandre Lacazette and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang for the first time in the 2-2 draw against Tottenham last […]
One of Unai Emery’s biggest problems over the summer was sorting out Arsenal’s defensive issues. The Spaniard brought in highly-rated teenager William Saliba early on in the summer, before loaning him back to Saint Etienne. Emery also landed two deadline day defender deals, with David Luiz joining from Chelsea and Kieran Tierney from Celtic. Luiz has […]
Arsenal were fairly busy in the final few days of the European window in terms of departures. Nacho Monreal ended his six-year association with the club to join Real Sociedad, while Mohamed Elneny and Henrikh Mkhitaryan completed season-long loan moves to Besiktas and AS Roma respectively. However, one move that also went through under the radar […]
Bernd Leno’s costly mistake early on against Tottenham allowed Christian Eriksen to put Spurs 1-0 up in the North London derby. A tame effort from Erik Lamela wasn’t dealt with by the German, who failed to tip it out for a corner, leaving Eriksen with an empty net to give Mauricio Pochettino’s side the lead. However, […]
Arsene Wenger is one of the most decorated managers in the history of the game following his 22-year stint with Arsenal. The 69-year-old, who left the Emirates Stadium last summer, won three Premier League titles, seven FA Cups and seven Community Shields during his time in North London. The Frenchman is still yet to return […]
Henrikh Mkhitaryan completed a season-long loan deal to AS Roma on deadline day, much to the delight of several Arsenal fans.

Alexandre Lacazette’s strike just before the break against Tottenham on Sunday proved to be crucial.

Unfortunately for Arsenal and Lacazette, he […]
It’s safe to say, Granit Xhaka didn’t have the best of games against Tottenham on Sunday.

Goals from […]
Matteo Guendouzi excelled in the North London derby against Tottenham on Sunday, producing an exquisite pass which allowed Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to equalise in the second half.

The club’s official twitter […]

Atkinson […]
